Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 398 Guess
"Order the scouts to continue to investigate, and find a way to find out where Qing's food and grass are?" When marching and fighting, food and grass are very important, and Shen Hao is not worried about his own food and grass, after all, there are heavy soldiers guarding them.

Hearing from the soldiers that Qing State's army was not as energetic as before, Shen Hao reckoned that it was consumed by them. After all, no matter how much Qing State yelled and scolded outside the border city, he would make people ignore him. He just stepped up his guard to prevent them from attacking directly. city.

Although he had never fought against the Qing Kingdom, based on his observations over the past few days, Shen Hao could conclude that the Qing Kingdom's army would never dare to attack the city.

"Yes." After taking the order, the soldier retreated, and Yan Xu looked at Shen Hao, asking for his opinion.

"The general wants to burn Qing's food and grass?" After hearing Shen Hao's order, Yan Xu immediately understood Shen Hao's intention.

"If Qing's food and grass are burned, they won't be able to continue shouting outside the city, unless they have a second plan." The reason they wanted to do this was to see if they had any second moves.

"The general is wise." After hearing Shen Hao's words, Yan Xu saluted him. Yan Xu agreed with Shen Hao's meaning very much.

"Yan Xu, what do you think Qing Guo is here for?" Sitting back on the chair, Shen Hao looked at Yan Xu and asked his opinion.

"Until today, my subordinates haven't been able to see it, but... my subordinates remember that the relationship between Qing State and Chu State seems to be very good. There is still a marriage between the two countries."

Hearing Shen Hao's question, Yan Xu thought about it carefully before answering.

"Chu State? Chu State is in the southwest, and the gap between the two countries is not ordinary. Even if they have a good relationship, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Slightly frowning, Shen Hao thought about it carefully, and said with some uncertainty, "Is there a general guarding the Southwest Border Pass?"

In the past, the Southwest was guarded by Su Qinghan. Shen Hao knew about it. Judging from the current day, it is not far from Su Qinghan's big wedding. Shen Hao reckoned that he should not be in the southwest border, but in the capital. , preparing for the wedding.

When Shen Hao left the capital, Emperor Jing hadn't "ordered" Su Qinghan to guard the border, so Shen Hao didn't know where Su Qinghan was now.

"If General Su is not there, there should be no general guarding the southwest border. The general is worried that this is a conspiracy between Qing State and Chu State?" After hearing Shen Hao's words, Yan Xu asked. He felt that this was also possible.

"Conspiracy?" Repeating Yan Xu's words, Shen Hao frowned even tighter, "If you don't say it, I really don't think about it, but what you said is possible."

Although the southwest border gate is also a border gate, it is not as strict as the northwest border gate in terms of guarding. Normally, people from all tribes can still enter and leave the southwest border gate.

Therefore, Shen Hao couldn't help being a little worried that Qing State and Chu State joined forces to deal with Xing'an. After all, Chu State was also very powerful.

"No, I want to write a letter to the emperor." Thinking of this, Shen Hao got up and walked towards the study, Yan Xu followed behind him, and the two continued to talk about their guesses.

"Qiye, we're almost arriving in the capital." After estimating the time, Wan Kun said to Bailirui. In the past few days, their speed has been faster than before.

"How much longer?" Bailirui asked after Wan Kun finished speaking.

"Probably, it will only take two or three days." After calculating the time, Wan Kun replied, "Master Qi, when we arrive, shall we go directly to the city?"

"Wait for a while, don't worry." Without the slightest hesitation, Bailirui responded, "Wait for Xiao Peng to send someone, and then enter the city before it's too late."

"Qiye, Xiao Peng is an old fox, will he see your thoughts?" Wan Kun was a little worried, after all, he has been the prime minister for many years, and the city is not so deep.

"Don't worry, it took a lot of time for him to persuade me." He smiled and said, Bailirui didn't care, he said so, and Wan Kun felt relieved.

The team continued to move forward, thinking that he was about to arrive in the capital, Bailirui's eyes couldn't help flashing complicated.

I'm going to... see her...

"Report to Empress, Concubine Hui is dying." In Yichun Palace, Hongxiu came in from outside the hall and reported to Concubine Rong.

"It can't be done? How could this be? Didn't you just say it was just an emergency?" After hearing Hongxiu's words, Concubine Rong suddenly showed surprise on her face.

"It is true that it is an emergency, but just now I heard that there was news from Zhongcui Palace, saying that Concubine Hui is dying, and has sent someone to report to the emperor." I reported everything I knew to Concubine Rong, and Hongxiu didn't Thinking that Concubine Hui's illness would develop so quickly.

"Order someone to prepare the sedan chair, and I will go to Zhongcui Palace." Anyway, we have known each other for many years, and now that I heard that Concubine Hui is dying, no matter whether it is true or not, I should go and have a look.

"Yes." Responding, the red sleeves retreated, Concubine Rong took a few steps outside, suddenly looked down at her clothes, she called the palace servants, and changed herself into something more clean. Take the sedan chair and go to Zhongcui Palace.

Su Qingyan, Concubine Xian and others also heard the news. Although they were pregnant, Su Qingyan ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair and went to Zhongcui Palace.

When Su Qingyan arrived at Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Xian's sedan chair just dropped down. Seeing Su Qingyan, Concubine Xian saluted her with a very indifferent tone.

"Exemption." Waving at Concubine Xian, Su Qingyan held Zitan's hand and walked towards Zhong Cui Palace. Concubine Xian stood up and looked at Su Qingyan's back with coldness in her eyes.

Entering the hall, Su Qingyan heard soft sobbing. She looked towards the entrance of the inner room and saw Bixi standing there crying. It seemed that she didn't know that Concubine Hui's serious illness was not due to Really, everything is just acting.

"Concubine Chen is here." Concubine Rong's voice sounded, Su Qingyan looked away, and nodded at Concubine Rong, she held Zitan's hand and sat beside Concubine Rong.

"The emperor is inside." After Su Qingyan sat down, Concubine Rong spoke again, "Concubine Hui's illness really came too fast, it's only been a few days, and she actually..."

Concubine Rong didn't say the following words, but Su Qingyan could feel that there was a little sadness in Concubine Rong's words.

"Can the imperial doctor say what's wrong?" Although she knew everything was false, she still had to pretend not to know in front of Concubine Rong. She looked at Concubine Rong and asked.

"I didn't say it, I just said it was an emergency. If Concubine Hui goes away, I don't know what Princess Xin should do?"

Concubine Rong was worried about Princess Xin. After all, she was carried to Concubine Hui's side not long after she was born. Although she was not as old as Princess An, she already knew someone. "I hope Concubine Hui can make it through..."
